INSTALLATION
ATTENTION
Make sure the ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the amplifier remain clear to guarantee a continuous convection.
During installation, set the POWER switch of the amplifier to OFF (0) and set the MIC-1, 2 & 3 controls and the AUX-1 & 2 controls to minimum (0); do not connect the power supply yet.
INPUT
MICROPHONE:
MIC1 input is either a standard 1/4" mono jack on front panel or XLR and DIN on the rear panel (with selectable phantom power).
XLR (balanced operation)
Pin 1 = ground (GND)
Pin 2 = signal live
Pin 3 = signal return
1/4" stereo Jack (balanced operation (backside only)*
Pin 1 = ground (GND)
Pin 2 = signal live
Pin 3 = signal return

Pin 3 = Signaal -
Pin 4 = CHIME
Pin 5 = GND
*: the frontside 1/4" jack is a standard mono version
MIC1 input has VOX priority which will override MIC2 / MIC3 and AUX1 / AUX2 input signals but NOT the TEL/EMER input.
MIC1-3 input are XLR, DIN and phone jack with selectable phantom power located on the rear panel and wired as above. The phantom power is factory set to off and can be enabled as follow:
- Remove power lead trom the AC wall socket.
- Remove top cover.
- Locate the jumper
- connect jumper to the centre pin and ON position to enable the phantom power
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE AMPLIFIER FROM THE MAINS WHEN REMOVING THE COVER.

Switching on the manual chime on/off switch on the rear panel and short the pin4, pin5 of the DIN Socket will activate the chime function ("Ding-Dong" attention signal preceding a call).
AUX:
The equipment provides two auxiliary inputs which may be used for connecting other signal sources such as a Radio Tuner, CD or Cassette player. The level Control operates on each of the input sources. Turn the control clockwise to increase the volume or anticlockwise to reduce the volume.
The Aux input sockets are standard RCA phono, two sockets are supplied and these are linked together internally, this allows stereo signal sources to be used without the need to obtain a special lead, however you may wish to check with the manufacturer of the signal source to ensure that no damage will result if the left and right output channels are put in parallel.
In case the backside switch LINE/MIC is set to 'LINE' this input can be used for music as well.
TEL/EMER:
This input is for emergency announcements/signals and is not effected by the master volume control. Input level can be set by level control on the rear. The TEL input has the highest priority and will override all other inputs.
Be aware that the telephone exchange must have a 'babyphone' or 'room listening' functionality.
POWER IN AND PRE OUT:
Connects the mixer/preamplifier stage to the power amplifier stage. The connecting link must be plugged in for normal operation as a mixer/amplifier. If a compressor/limiter, equalizer, or other external signal processor is used in the sound system, connect the "PRE OUT to the input of the external processor and the output of the processor to" POWER IN" In the signal chain, "PRE OUT" is after the tone controls and the master volume control.
LOW IMPEDANCE:
Use the COM-8 Ohm output in case the distance to the loudspeakers is shorter than 50 to 75 metres.
When using low impedance loudspeakers, the total power of the loudspeakers should be equal or larger than the amplifier output. Otherwise one or more
loudspeakers will be damaged when the output is at its maximum. Make sure the total impedance remains in between 4 and 16 ohm:
When connected in series, the impedances of each of the speakers can be added.
When (equal) loudspeakers are connected in parallel, the impedance of a single loudspeaker must be devided by the number of speakers.
Eventually, use a combination of series and parallel connection to obtain the required impedance.

Use the COM-25V, COM-70V or COM-100 V output terminals for loudspeaker-distances of more than 50 to 75 metres. Use only speakers with a line transformer.
In case of connection to the 100 volt output, the power of all loudspeaker (-transformers) connected should be equal or less than the effective RMS output power of the amplifier (PAX-30 = 30 Watt / PAX-120 = 120Watt).
Should more loudspeakers be connected than the amplifier can supply, the amplifier will burn out no matter what the settings of the volume controls are.

DC 24V + COM 8Ω 25V 70V 100VAll loudspeakers should be connected in parallel; with the 100 volts system, series connection is not allowed.
In case the total loudspeakerpower exceeds the amplifier's power, use the 70 volt output; it is now allowed to connect loudspeakers up to twice the amplifier power.
When the 25V output is used, it is allowed to connect loudspeakers up to 4 times the amplifier power
As a rule of thumb, loudspeaker transformers are provided with several power terminals obtaining a larger flexibility; use the low power terminal where less volume is required and use the high power terminal where more volume is required.

2W 4W 6WIt is allowed to provide individual loudspeakers with an on/off switch or with a rotary switch (with connections to several terminals) to obtain a kind of volume control.
WHEN USING THE 25, 70 OR 100 VOLTS LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM, THE SAME RULES SHOULD BE APPIED AS ARE VALID FOR THE 230 VOLTS MAINS SUPPLY. COUNCEL YOUR ENERGY COMPANY.
TAPE OUT:
These standard RCA phono sockets provide a mixed output suitable for connection to a tape or Cassette recorder.
POWER SUPPLY:
Connect the amplifier either to the mains 230 VAC (power cord included) or to a 24V / 10A DC power source.
WARNINGS:
When using a battery supply, the cabinet of the amplifier will be connected to the “-” (minus) of the supply. When using a 230 Vac mains supply, the cabinet of the amplifier will be connected to the ground of the mains. Connect the amplifier to a grounded outlet only.
USAGE
ATTENTION:
Prior to switch-on the amplifier, set the MIC-1, 2 & 3 controls and the AUX-1 & 2 controls to minimum (0).
MUSIC:
With the AUX-1/2 controls you control the volume of the music sources connected to the AUX-1/2 inputs. Input MIC-3 can be switched into a music input (position 'LINE'). Use control MIC-3 to control the volume,
Microphone:
The MIC-1, MIC-2 and MIC-3 controls control the volume of the microphones connected to the equal named inputs (see rear of amplifier).
MASTERVOLUME:
Use the MASTER control to adjust the master volume except the volume from the TEL/EMER input.
TONE CONTROL:
Use the BASS control to amplify (clockwise) or weaken (anti-clockwise) the low frequency signals. Use the TREBLE control to amplify (clockwise) or weaken (anti-clockwise) the high frequency signals.
TEL/EMER VOLUME:
Use the control (29) on the rear to control the volume of the telephone / emergency signal. The MASTER control does not affect this volume.
AUTO MUTE:
As soon and as long there is speech present in the microphone connected to the MIC-1 input, all other signals, excluding the TEL/EMER input, are being suppressed.
CHIME:
When connecting a pushbutton between PIN-4 and PIN-5 of the rear-side DIN socket, you can generate a DING DONG signal. This pushbutton can be built-in into a (table)microphone.
- never use the amplifier in moist or wet surroundings;
- the amplifier may only be opened and repaired by authorised personnel; the amplifier does not contain spare parts;
- do not (let) drop any objects through the ventilation holes; if this happens, immediately switch off the amplifier and cut the power supply. Bring your amplifier to your dealer;
- make sure the ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the amplifier have a clearance of at least 1 to 2 cm to guarantee a continuous convection;
- the cabinet of the amplifier is connected with ground of the mains and with the “-” (minus) of the DC supply;
- clean the cabinet with a light moist cloth only; switch off the amplifier before you start cleaning;
- switch on the amplifier only after setting all controls to MINIMUM (0), this prevents plops;
- when exposed to a high volume for a long period of time, the hearing might be damaged;
- set the volume in such a way that other sounds from the surroundings still reach you and others.
